Ball Tar Events Can Have Impact on Goa Fisheries

PANAJI: Goa’s Coastline, which has been hit by one of the worst tar ball episodes in recent years has seen an increase in the frequency of attacks on toxic materials.
Prolonged exposure to carcinogenic crude can spell disaster for small bentic organisms, which is an integral part of the fish production chain.
Need the beach cleaning workforce a few days to clean the dirt, but damage to marine life has not changed and uncontrollable.
“The diversity of maximum living organisms is found in the top five centimeters up to 10cm beach sand or intertidal zone.
This is a honeycomb activity and leached oil forming microfilms on the surface of the sand, blocking connectivity to the surface.
Oil enters the filtering room or gills from filterfeeding organisms, blocking activities Their breathing, “Head of Scientist, Biological Oceanography, Nio, said Baban Ingole.
The Makrobenthic community on the beach, most of whom spend most of their lives in a burrow in the sand, is a source of food for larger fish.
“Their picture under the sand can cause a misunderstanding that the intertidal coast is a less productive zone,” said former scientist Nio Antonio Mascarenhas.
Ingole and Mascarenhas are one of the teams of NIO scientists who have noted in the study of 50 species of Makrobentika in Miramar’s sandy stretch of more than a decade ago.
“Now there may be more.
50 species including a dozen edible species such as condoio (DonaX) and Tisreo (shells) in the sandy stretch,” Ingole said.
The concentration of the Bentik community is very important for coastal ecosystems.
“For each square centimeter, there will be around 33 to 85 individuals.
Miramar is a Muara sandy beach that is rich in benthic fauna, and in this case, other beaches of Crustacea and Bivalve Molluscs, and some of them are included in edible groups,” Mascarenhas said.
Climate change dynamics – Increase in temperature, sea level and pollution – also has harmful implications for bentic organisms.
“Some Hardy species adapt to changes can survive, while others may disappear,” Ingole said.
